I'm trying to build boost (boost_1_31_0) as a dependency for monotone http://venge.net/monotone/ on Mac OS X 10.4 (tiger). I'm doing this using gcc-3.3 because monotone doesn't work properly with gcc 4. Following the instructions in monotone for how to build boost, it tells me to do this:
Our support for Mac OS X wasn't all that great in 1.31.0; I think it should work. We're getting better now that more developers are using Mac OS X as their primary development machines, although Tiger is so new that it might not support it perfectly yet.
So, I'm wondering what I need to do to get boost to build on darwin. Can anyone give me some help?
You need to pass "-sTOOLS=darwin" on the bjam command line. Darwin is different enough that we have a different compiler configuration ("toolset") for it. You might have better luck with Boost 1.32.0. Doug
